Greetings Sylvain. 

I am in the GTA and will be replacing my 06 XC70 next week with a Tiguan comfortline.

Great job with this site.

Hello 09 thanks for the comments and congrats on the car! Post some pictures when you get it.

Hello all...George Lowe here!  I currently live in Clovis, NM.  I've drive/own a fully loaded Alpine Gray, SEL 4-Motion with every available option that could be ordered.  It's my daily driver and has some where around 11k miles on it now. I ordered it May of 2008 and it was delivered 3 days before my birthday in October.  Turned around and drove it across the country from Fort Walton Beach to Clovis...pulling my 07' VRSCDX Night Rod in a 5x8 U-Haul with the interior packed full of things as well.  Have not had any issues to date...and had the Bluetooth installed to make life just that much easier!

Still looking for a few basic Euro OEM parts to complete the vehicle...and am waiting on them to arrive whenever that will be.

Prior VW's of mine include:
1. 1969 Transporter (still own - second owner!!)
2. 1983 Rabbit GTI
3. 1984 Jetta
4. 1995 Golf City Ed.
5. 1999 Beetle 1.8T
6. 2001 GTI VR6 (still own)
7. 2003 20th Anniversary GTI
8. 2004 R32 BMP


Yes I have always been a VW man and always will be...or at least I will keep it within the VAG family!

Welcome Aboard George, congrats on the new car and wow, talk about customer loyalty!

Hey everyone- I just bought my first VW 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately my wife drives it most of the time but I get my kicks with it when  I can. We bought an Alpine Gray 09 Tiguan 4-motion SEL with panoramic sunroof. I skipped out on the nav cause I have a better one in mind later. I will post some pics when I get the chance. Looking forward to learning some stuff about my new purchase.

Just traded up from our 2006 Jetta TDI to a Wild Cherry Metallic 2009 Tiguan Highline.  This is only the third VW we have owned, although in the early '90s I had a Golf Diesel company car for 3 years.  We had a '61 Type 1 (beetle) when we got married.  Froze to death the second winter we had it!
Basically I am an import vehicle person.  We live in Alberta, Canada.
Other current vehicles are a 2001 Suzuki Grand Vitara, and a 1991 Eunos Roadster.

Now I need to find ways to "personalize" our new Tiguan.

great car of course except chapter 3.4 is missing from the owners manual and i need that section to hook  up bluetooth  to my wife's phone. can anyone pass that my way?
thanks,
Randal
PS: the car is so much fun we, as parents, are having second thoughts about using it for drivers training for our 16 y/o.

First time Volkwagen owner, my son works at a volkwagen dealership and introduced me to the tiguan.

Glad he did, purchased 2009 july Comfortline package.
Love the full sunroof.

I look forward to the ability to have any questions I may have answered.

Barry & Jennifer Pendergast in Calgary eagerly awaiting the arrival of their new sapphire blue Tiguan Highline due to arrive at this weekend. Barry is a retired architect and Jennifer a retired early childhood educator. This will be their first Volkswagon after a number of Toyotas (all very reliable). They will keep their 2002 Sienna as a second car, Hoping to take the Tiguan to the coast in early May to get  to know it better

Hi from Alberta!  My wife and I have put about 3000km on our 2010 SE (Comfortline) Tiguan 4Motion. We are very pleased with this vehicle choice, and hope to trade good tech tips and owner advice with all of you.

p.s. I had the Tiguan ECU remapped by APR. If any of you are interested, we can talk about how that has improved my Tiguan driving experience.

Hi! to all ,  Full circle , I lived in the Canadan Arctic now for 10 years making the move south in the fall 2010 to  N.S.  my name is Blaine and my first vehicle was a used blue 66 or 67 Karmen ghia  can't quite remember it was the 60.s .Had lots of big fords, Chev's , trucks since .All our shopping here is done with the help of the internet we have no roads in or out everything is flown in or shipped in during the short summer.  We mainly use snowmobiles and ATV to get around due to lack of good roads and gas $. Shopping on line for a new car for the south the new tiguan seems to be a very serious vehicle. Bottom line is I can not find  any negative reviews on this product .The way I see it  It's the right thing to do. I will be ordering my new Tiguan in a few weeks. I definitely deserve it .       I am sure VW has fixed rust issues by now !

Hi Everyone - 2010 SEL FWD in Black/Black Leather with Sunroof & Towhitch here.  My old ride was a 2002 GMC Envoy SLT fully-loaded - but my wife just traded in her 2008 Rabbit for a 2010 GTI - not fair!  Looking forward to meeting other Tiggy owners over here - GREAT CAR!

Hi, all. I live in upstate New York, and my 2010 Tiguan S 4-Motion has been with me for just under three weeks. It's the first car I've actually *loved* for a very long time! (It replaced a very sensible 2001 Subaru Forester.) Thanks for creating and maintaining this website.
